The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leadership is underfire for passing sexist and derogatory comments toward Foreign Minister (FM) Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz.
“This darmiyana man has become our FM. May God bless him, how will he move Pakistan forward,” said Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Mahmood Khan.
“I said it earlier, if he is coming, we will move to Afghanistan, at least we will be able to live there,” added CM Khan.
Former Education Minister of Punjab Murad Raas passed derogatory comments about Bilawal, Maryam, and another PML-N leader Attaullah Tarar.
Former Deputy Speaker National Assembly (NA) Qasim Suri tweeted a picture of a PTI supporter holding a placard with an insensitive comment on Bilawal and shared it with the caption “lethal”.
Netizens called out the three PTI leaders for their comments. Twitter reactions are as follows:
